You haven't activated the map-file correctly.

If you have changed config.ps and pdftex.map as described in
ascii2006: undo the changes.

Then follow the instructions in the miktex documentation:

http://docs.miktex.org/2.9/manual/advanced.html#psfonts

If you want have a multiuser installation and want to install the
font for all users call initexmf with the --admin switch. If you
already have a user pdftex.map then you will have to call initexmf 
without the admin switch too.
